"They repainted my shutters and hung up a few shutters that had fallen down. They painted two interior hallways and an interior stairway. They did a perfect job! I plan on hiring them again to do more painting around my house!"

"I would highly recommend Groovy Hues to anyone looking for high quality stain and paint services that wonâ t break the bank. The Groovy Hues team is professional and easy to work with. They did an exterior stain job on our large fence, and we were so pleased with the quality and price of the work, that we also hired Groovy Hues to paint our master bathroom. We look forward to using Groovy Hues again in the future!"

"The owner , Rebecca Conner, responded very quickly to discuss the scope of work. The bid for the deck work was emailed to me within a day or two of her visiting the house to discuss the scope of work. She was very helpful in suggesting stain and deck paint colors that look great.

Ray and Joe showed up when they said they would and always phoned when they could not make it due to bad weather. They were both courteous and professioinal. I was very impressed how conscientious they were in their work. They often said that "it has to be done right". It is difficult to find such dedicated people these days and I really appreciated them.

I highly recommend them.

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Limewash and whitewash are two techniques used to give brick a light, matte finish, but they differ in composition, application, and permanence. The best choice depends on your aesthetic goals and the specific surface.

Composition

  • Limewash: A natural and environmentally friendly option made from limestone, water, and sometimes pigments. It is breathable and soaks into porous surfaces like brick.

  • Whitewash: Traditionally made from lime, water, chalk, and binders, but a similar look can be achieved with watered-down white paint. It is paint-based and sits on top of the surface.

Appearance and Finish

  • Limewash: Provides a natural, textured appearance that allows the brick's character to show through. It offers a more traditional finish.

  • Whitewash: Creates a softer, more opaque finish, often used for a rustic or shabby-chic style.

Application and Permanence

  • Limewash: Is semi-permanent and can be removed, making it a good choice if you might want to change the look in the future. It requires more skill to apply and cannot be used on previously painted brick.

  • Whitewash: Is a more permanent solution. It is more forgiving to apply and can be used on painted brick. However, because it sits on the surface, it can trap moisture.

Ultimately, if you want a breathable, natural, and reversible finish for unpainted brick, limewash is a great option. If you need a more permanent, opaque coating that can be applied over painted surfaces, whitewash is the better choice. Whitewashing may also be more economical, costing approximately $1.40 to $4.20 per square foot.

The number of coats you need to apply when whitewashing a surface depends on how opaque you want the final product to be. If you're going for a transparent, barely there look, a single coat or two may suffice. For fuller coverage, you'll want to use multiple coats. Another option is to use a less diluted paint to get a thicker coverage. 

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must. 

Wood stain is not flammable after it dries. The solvent in wood stain is what causes the liquid form to be highly flammable, but the stain drying process involves the solvents dissolving, which leaves behind a non-flammable product on your wood project. Wood stain is, however, flammable before you apply it, so you should always store partially full cans and used wood stain rags away from sources of heat and open flames.

Ensure gutters and downspouts remain clean, monitor wall integrity, and promptly address any arising imperfections or peels concept permanence rooted.
